But the most important concept I wanted to introduce here was
exposure therapy, which is part of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
CBT is basically being mindful of your crappy neural connections,
and gaining skills to retrain those connections.
The article that most helped me understand CBT —
and had a huge impact on my personal life —
is this article,
CBT is for Hackers.

So that's the further reading on brain stuff.
The other part of Neurons is its weird interactive format,
a hybrid of "game" and animated explainers like Vi Hart, CGP Grey, and Kurzgesagt.
I was inspired by Bret Victor's 2011 article,
Explorable Explanations,
another interactive hybrid.

Specifically, I'm dedicating Neurons to the public domain, via
Creative Commons Zero.
